You need to prove your claim with numbers, because USA media is a thousand times larger in reach than Chinese media. Hard to believe that the Chinese media is doing anything except fighting fire with fire (against the biggest and most important liars in the West).
Oh, don't get me wrong! I will not defend American empire and the American media establishment. This is why I am a President Trump supporter, although now a very tepid one. I feel that anything which upsets the normal status of the operation is pretty good.

I am a techno-agrarian traditionalist, and you are coming at this from the leftward angle, but here's the beauty of it...
If I get what I want, I will help give you what you want, and I know you'd do the same for me, and while there are undesirable extremists on the fringes of left & right who would use it as an opportunity to oppress others, we need to respect each other from a distance and give each other space to fight the power 2gether.
